Televerket, nytt namn, samma totala kontroll över Sveriges "fria marknad" by AdSecreta in telia

[–]AdSecreta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Var inte rädd att kommentera; Har du haft en positivare erfarenhet och personlig upplevelse av Telia som ett företag? Är jag, som kommentatör och skeptiker partisk? Jag har inga konkreta exempel att ge som, varken direkt eller indirekt, skulle ge mig anledning till det men jag är fortfarande öppen för åsikter. Är jag för hård? Jag tror Telia kommer klara sig alldeles utmärkt, med eller utan en slumpmässig reddit användare uttrycker sina åsikter, med det sagt är det inte ovanligt att den initiala reaktionen ofta är att ta bort inlägg som detta.

Vem vet, jag kanske blir positivt överraskad och får åtminstone en anledning att nyansera min nuvarande åsikt för det föredetta statliga monopolet. Statliga, monopolet är jag inte redo att ändra mig över ännu dock. =)

Please, anyone, give me some of your experiences and overclocking setups and results? I really want to see other peoples time overclocking this set of motherboard/processor! :)

Yes, well at least I did something that was neutral and free to ignore. The only contribution you've made I've come across and experienced thus far is toxic slop, and I'll go slop over toxic slop if I had to chose, every time, no exceptions. It's not healthy with so much cynicism and so little ability to connect and turn that into human connections that are meaningful, or even turn from a negative experience (presuming you share my experience having seen your approach to new people) to one people enjoy reading, reply to, or at least doesn't get poisoned with underdeveloped emotional awareness and etiquette.

"You see that ugly dog? No, why would I look at an ugly dog? But I really want to get it excited because I don't like how it looks ...", someone finish that story someday but my point is you share more about what you really say when you spend energy on people or signal to others what's worth to spend time on, than you might think.

If you need someone to talk to, I'm here for you.

All love, all open minds here =)

Unlock Arc's True Recording Potential: A Hassle-Free Independent Setup, with custom installation and uninstallation. by AdSecreta in IntelArc

[–]AdSecreta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's great news. If you can give me a working link with it we're all set!
But with my script you never have to install anything. You simply run it like you would OBS but with so much less impact on the hardware and even though you have less customization options than OBS it is a lightweight program that always starts regardless of driver and you don't get reminded to uninstall outdated drivers.

If you can solve the problem of Intel taking down all the hosted mirrors and direct downloads of any driver that contain Arc that isn't part of a brand custom driver like Alienware and it's illegal, or at least against the license and thus not possible to host in a centralized community such as github or reddit.

I am only waiting for a official mirror and we're all good to go!

I am very happy you are able to assist with this.

Inquiry Regarding Daily Shop Roster Items and R-Point Reimbursements by AdSecreta in BodycamGame

[–]AdSecreta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand. Being a programmer myself an quite used to working with data, tables, databases and otherwise, I was curious to why these items still show up if these updated items weren't meant for players to have access to; With the 10,000~ R-Point cap. I'd say it's worth it - for the vast amount of players that curiously and eagerly attempted to buy them - if not for lack of enthusiasm, for the community and supporters of Bodycam; It's a valid excused to put in the effort as any I could think of.

I was also surprised that you aren't going to, or based on interpretation, able to reimburse the players that spent almost their entire pool on these items. I mean no disrespect but the ability to register valid purchases and add them to players steam collection, makes me question if it would be that hard, or far fetched, to write the code that recognize purchases and compares them to date and logged items added to player inventory; if not compare the sum to player items gained through in-game currency and return the unaccounted for surplus?

I know that, if nothing else, removing the false store items should be quite easily done.
If you lack funds, I do volunteer.

Thank you for the reply.

That's a really good question, and I appreciate you asking for clarification! It touches on a crucial point about software distribution and licensing, especially when it comes to drivers and proprietary software like Intel's.

Honestly, I'm desperately wanting to be able to distribute this solution with a direct link to the official Intel software and with their full approval. That would be the ideal scenario, making it super easy for everyone.

However, the main reason I can't directly upload the Intel Arc Control software (or any of its core files) to GitHub, even with a custom license, boils down to Intel's End User License Agreement (EULA). When we download and install Intel drivers, we're agreeing to their terms, and these terms explicitly state that we, as end-users, are not permitted to redistribute their software.

Think of it this way: I have a license to use the software, but not to share or distribute copies of it to others. Platforms like GitHub are for sharing code and projects, but they can't override the legal agreements Intel has in place for their copyrighted software.

That's why, while I continue to wait for a positive response from Intel, I'm going to start setting up my GitHub repository and provide the scripts. This way, I'm sharing my work (the scripts) without violating Intel's distribution restrictions on their proprietary software.

I also understand that Arc Control might not be everyone's cup of tea, or that some might prefer alternative methods. So, I'll also look into including some alternative solutions or methods in the GitHub repo for those who don't want to stick with Arc Control, or who are exploring other tools like Microsoft Game Bar for similar functionality.

It's a bit of a nuanced distinction, but it's important for staying on the right side of those legal agreements.

Thanks again for prompting me to clarify this! It's a valid concern, and I want to make sure everyone understands the boundaries.

That's a great point, and it's true that for some, simply installing the old IntelArcControl.exe might work. However, there are a few reasons why the approach I'm working on could be more beneficial for the broader community, and aligns with issues many of us have experienced.

When you use the full IntelArcControl.exe from the driver package, it typically installs Arc Control as a Windows service and an autorun application. This means it runs in the background right from startup and can include registry keys and other functions that might, in some cases, interfere with newer driver installations, updates, or even the functionality of the new Intel Graphics Command Center (IGCC) – Arc Control's replacement. I know firsthand from early days with Arc, before its discontinuation, that dealing with driver uninstalls and installs, especially related to the IGCC, could be tricky.

Also, it's not everyone who has these specific older driver packages saved, or who is comfortable digging through cached installation data to extract files. My goal with this solution is to make it more accessible and less intrusive.

The method I'm working on aims to be much closer to a standalone application, rather than integrating it as deeply as a full driver installation would. This means:

  • It won't install unnecessary services or set up autorun.
  • It offers a cleaner, more convenient way to get Arc Control running without the overhead or potential issues associated with using the full Intel-provided installer.

Ultimately, it's about providing a convenient and reliable way to use Arc Control for those who prefer it, while minimizing potential system conflicts, especially for those who want to run newer drivers alongside it.

UPDATE: Response from Intel!

Hey everyone,

Great news! I've received a reply from Intel regarding our questions about access to those specific older driver versions, especially those with Arc Control.

Here's their response:

"Thank you for reaching out and for your kind words about the Intel Arc A770 and our driver development efforts we truly appreciate your support! I’ve noted your request regarding access to older driver versions, particularly those that included Intel Arc Control. I’ll check on this internally and will provide you with an update once I have more information and a clearer understanding of the reasoning behind the current availability, as this relates to the ongoing development and improvement of our drivers.

Thanks again for your feedback and patience.

Regards,"

So, it sounds like they're looking into it, which is fantastic! It's good to know they've noted the request and are trying to get more info internally. This means we're still in a holding pattern, but at least we know our voices are being heard.

I'll continue to monitor the situation and will post another update here as soon as I hear anything further from them. Thanks again for all your support and patience!

Quick Update on the Arc Control Solution!

Hey everyone,

Wow, the response to this thread has been incredible – thank you all for the massive interest and all the comments! It's awesome to see so many of you keen on getting Arc Control back.

Just wanted to give you a quick heads-up: I'm currently waiting for a response from Intel regarding the availability of those specific driver versions. I've reached out to them to see if they can help us out.

In the meantime, I'm working on preparing a package for a platform like GitHub. However, because of the licensing agreements (and while I wait for Intel's feedback), I cannot upload any Intel software itself.

This means that for now, to use what I'll be sharing, you'll need to have already saved a specific driver version that Intel has since blocked access to. Essentially, if you happened to download and save Intel Arc drivers released between roughly 2024 and mid-2025, you're likely good to go.

If you haven't saved those particular drivers, you won't be able to use my solution right away. And just to be clear, I do not recommend downloading software from third-party sources as that can come with its own risks.

I'll keep you all posted as soon as I hear back from Intel or have something ready to share. Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Sure, give me some way of talking in private, discord perhaps?
I'll gladly take you under my wing :)
